Historically, the people involved in Agricultural Fairs possess traditional values and honor. At the Pierce County Fair, that tradition continues. However, the Pierce County Fair is open to the public and those entering the fairgrounds may not necessarily possess the same values. Thus, we would like to take a moment to remind you, the fair exhibitor and guest, to take precautions against those who are looking to take advantage of others.

The best way to avoid problems is to provide a greeting, good customer service, and eye contact with those in your exhibit area.

• Wear comfortable shoes!
• Right before going into the fair….take out your camera phone and take a picture of your children! That way if you get separated from them, you will have a recent description of your kids and can remember EXACTLY what they are wearing.
• Be attentive to those approaching/entering your exhibit area.
• Keep personal items out of sight. Cameras, cell phones, and other electronic devices are easily concealed.
• At night, secure your exhibit as best as possible. Cover items with sheets or tarps. If in a building, please lock, but only use a lock that has been approved by Fair Management.
